    And you'll be glad to here that having qualified 15th Gaz went on to enjoy a clean race witha 14th finish...not bad for afirst timer with 20 minutes in the car!!!

    And, it looks like we're now a Girl-friendly charity too, as a young lady who vivisted us today from Phoenix House looks like she's going to join the programme...

     Hi jon,

    It was great to see Gaz on the track at Croft this afternoon, and speak to you and some of the Max5 guys this morning. I am sure he will be just as good tomorrow. Shame I can't be there again.

    Peter.

    After the success of the press day on Thursday, all we wanted to do was get Gaz through the weekend in one piece, not to mention the car!

    What happenend next is the stuff of Hollywood dreams, I'll let the pictures speak for themselves...

    Certainly can mate, started a thread here but it seems to have got lost down the active list.

    Been an absloutely EPIC weekend and yes, there's a FULL write up in the next STHT, not just a big piccy Wink

    Gary (and possibly Jimmy) will be at Mallory next Sunday for the last MaX5 race of the year. Only right we end the year with the guys that have made our year possible in the first place Thumbs up
